THE OLD FOLKS AT HOME
Are Never Without Peruna in the House for
Catarrhal Diseases.
MR. AND MRS. J. 0. ATKINSON, INDEPENDENCE, MO.
Under date of January 10, 1897, Dr.
Hartman received the following letter:
"My wife had been suffering from a
complication of diseases for the past 25
years.
"Her case had baffled the skill of
some of the most noted physicians.
One of her worst troubles was chronic
constipation of several years' standing.
"She also was passing through that
most critical period in the life of a
woman change of life. In Jane,
1895, 1 wrote to yoa about her case.
You advised a course of Feruna and
Manalin, which we at once commenced,
and have to say it completely cured
her. She firmly believes that she
would have been dead cnly for those
wonderful remedies.
"About the same time I wrote you
about my own case of catarrh, which
had been of 25 years' standing. At
times I was almost past going. I com
menced to use Peruna according to your
instructions and continued its use foi
about a year, and it has completely
cured me.
"Your remedies do all that you claim
for them, and even more. Catarrh
cannot exist where Peruna is taken
according: to directions. Success to
you and your remedies."
John O. Atkinson.
Energy Is Eternal.
Who is there who darea to say that
when old age is reached there Js not
as much laid by in that soul wrapped
in its weary body as there was in the
infant full of latent power? "Wte know
not where the infant's forces come
from, nor where the dying man's en
ergy goes, to, but if nature teaches us
anything it teaches us that forces
such as these are eternal in the same
sense thatmatter Is eternal and space
endless. Frank Bolles.

Just a Small Matter.
As Morgan and Gates closed a little
deal John said to Pierp: "'Pears to
me I've got a few dollars coming,"
and Pierp, reaching down in his jeans,
brought up a handful of checks and
paid the difference right there. It
wasn't much; only eighteen million
dollars.
Their Opinion of the War.
The following conversation was
overheard in a South African block
house near the close of the Boer war:

we are home In time for the resurrec

In spite of all efforts to prevent it,

every nook and corner of the system;
the Stomach and Kidneys, in fact
tvery organ and part of the body, be

poison. This disease is rarely, if ever,
even in itsearliest stages, a purely local
disease or simple inflammation of the

septic and soothing washes are good for cleansing purposes or clearing tn

In a letter dated January 1, 1900,
Mr. Atkinson says, after five years' ex
perience with Peruna:
"I will ever continue to speak a good
word for Peruna. In my rounds as a
traveling man I am a walking adver
tisement for Peruna and have induced
many people during the past year to
use Peruna with the most satisfactory
results. I am still cured of catarrh."
John O. Atkinson,
Box 373. Independence, Mo,
"When old age comes on, catarrhal
diseases come also. . Systemic catarrh
is almost universal in old people.
This explains why Peruna has become
so indispensable to old people. Peruna
is their safeguard. Peruna is the only
remedy yet devised that meets these
cases exactly.
Such cases cannot be treated locally;
nothing but an effective systemic reme
dy could cure them. This is exactly
what Peruna is.
If you do not receive prompt and
satsifactory results from the use of Pe
runa, write at once to Dr. Hratman,
giving a full statement of your case and
he will be pleased to give you his valu
able advice gratis.

Language of Parrots.
Do parrots understand what they
say? A scientist relates that he has
a Brazilian parrot which is a fluent
and accomplished speaker. A gray
parrot was introduced on day, but the
Brazilian hautily declined to have
anything to say to the gray. Then a
neighbor who has just been given a
newly Imported green Brazilian
brought the newcomer to call. The
moment the parrots caught sight of
each other they broke into a torrent
of apparently articulate language,
consisting, as it seemed, of questions
and answers, but what the language
was no one present could tell. The
owner of the first parrot had never
during the years it had lived with
him heard it speak the strange
tongue. The two parrots talked to
each other without ceasing all the
time they were together, and a few
days later, when they met again, ex
actly the same thing happened. Was
the first parrot, long exiled from its
native forests, asking eagerly for news
of its people?
As to the Manner of His doing.

Some of the moat weird and curious

According to the legend. Colin Lind

quietly eating his breakfast when he
should have been awaiting his bride at
the altar. When reminded of the fact
he hurried off to the church and. for
getting the indispensable ring, borrow
ed one from a friend which he duly
placed on the bride's finger.
At the conclusion of the ceremony
the newly made countess took a glance
at the rtng and on seeing that it bore
a grinning death's head, suddenly
fainted away. The Incident affected
her to such an extent that on recover

One of the best-known public men
In New Zealand, a wealthy resident of
Hokiangl, North Island, recently .trav

less endeavor to have an idol cremated
which had cast an evil spell over him.
The heathen idol had come to him as
part of a legacy from his grandfather,
to whom it had been presented by a
Maori chief. Said Its owner: "I have
traveled 10,000 miles with the image,
and it has brought disaster after disas
ter upon me. I have often endeavor
ed to destroy It, but without avait
"I once threw it under a train, and.
In running to get out of the way, fell
and broke one of my fingers. Then 1
was arrested for endangering the lives
of passengers. When In London three
months ago I threw It Into the Thames,
and a drunken sailor who fished It out
brought it back to my rooms, and In
his rage at not receiving a reward al
most beat me to death.
"While In San Francisco I tried to
Chop it to" pieces with an ax, when the
ax, rebounding, 'struck me on the fore
head with almost fatal effect. The
wood is so hard that an ordinary fire
will not destroy It, and I am afraid to
get rid of it otherwise because of the
evil results." .
The image was a crude figure in rose
wood and ebony, and about two feet
long. Falling to get lit cremated In St
Louis, its owner started for New York,
where he was determined to have It
destroyed at whatever cost.

OWED LOTS TO LAZY MAN.
"Old Jones" Waa Family Spur that
Kept Him Hustling. '
The theory as expressed by Tenny
son that "nothing walks with aimless
feet" is now and then curiously corrob
orated. "Looking back over my life," re
marked a man who would probably be
an ethical professor If he were not an
Insurance agent, "I find that one of
the strongest Influences for good that
I was subjected to In my character
molding years emanated from the most
worthless citizen in our village, every
body called him the lazy man' or 'Old
Jones.' He seemed to have always
been old and to have always been lazy.
Not that he was a dissipated man he
was simply lazy, and sponged his way
through life without labor. His wife's
people helped him; his own people
helped him; the neighbors and the
townspeople helped him; somebody al
ways helped "Old Jones.' Occasional
ly he would fish a little or go off into
the woods and hunt a little, but gener
ally he just sat around at home, at
the village grocery or at the postofflce.
Sometimes he would sit on a rail fence
along the road for half a day at a time
doing nothing.
"Well, sir. 'Old Jones' regulated my
childhood. My father and mother kept
him constantly before me and my
brothers. Every tendency to idleness
or shirking was thus commented on:
'Look out, now; you are getting just
like old Jones.' The boy who was In
clined to sleep late was accosted:
Come, Old Jones, get right up break
fast Is ready.' Old Jones was the fam
ily spur, and it worked like a charm.
All of my father's four boys are ener
getic, Industrious, successful men.
"Now I'm past 40," continued the In
surance agent, acording to the Detroit
Free Press, "but 'Old Jones' is still
with me -the poor old fellow died not
long ago, my sister wrote me. When
ever I feel a trifle lazy or find myself
dawdling at my day's toil some inward
monitor says clearly, 'Look out, now;
you're getting just like Old Jones,' and
then I buckle to with a will. Really I
owe lazy Old Jones a great debt he
helped me to success. Next time I go
back to the old town. If Old Jones
hasn't a respectable tombstone I'm go
ing to see that be has one. Yes, sir, I
owe It to him."
Celestial Wonder.
The appearance of a new star In the
constellation Perseus and its rapid ex
pansion Into a nebula, which has been
going on for some time past, have
revived among astronomers the the
ory that some nebulae may be formed
by explosion, writes a contributor to
Success. About 1870 Professor Bicker
ton, of Canterbury College, New Zea
land, showed that If two stars should
graze one another the abraded parts.
If relatively small, would have so high
a temperature that they would af once
become nebulous, and that the nebula
so formed would under certain condi
tions, continue to expand until dissi
pated In space. The present expanding
nebula has been growing at the ex
traordinary rate of several thousand
miles a second, and is. in many ways,
one of the greatest celestial wonders of
the time.

MOTTO FOR NEW YEAR.
Eat Whatever You Want, But Be Sure
and Have Good Teeth.
Now that the holiday spirit is preva
lent everywhere it is a good time to be
a little selfish and think what would
be the best present to give to oneself.
Why isn't a good set of teeth one oi
the best things you can have in this
life?
Wise Bros., the famous dentists ir,
the Failing building, Portland, Oregon,
have had a large run of business during
these holidays, probably somewhat in
consequence of the people's special de
sire just now to make themselves sensi
ble presents.
"Why don't you go to this firm before
the new year and have your teeth look
ed after?
When you come to think oi it, there
is nothing we want more than 'a sound
set of teeth. Our health and all our
happiness depend much upon what we
eat. If we cannot masticate our food
properly we are restricted to only a few
eatables, and even in their case we can
not properly chew and digest our food.
Not long ago the fear of pain the and
great expense of dental work. kept near
ly all the masses away from dentists.
Now it is all different. There is posi
tively no pain when such dentists as
Wise Brothers do your work. Wife
Brothers' charges, also, are in reality
very moderate. If your teeth are ap
parently in good order the best way is
to go and have them looked over so as
to be sure that they are all right and
in sound condition. If your teeth are
decayed, then the best way is not to
lose any more time hut go immediately
and have the bad teeth taken out.
Even if you have to get an entire new
set the expense will be trifling in com
parison with the great and lasting bene
fits you will derive from having a set of
teeth that look for all the world like
the natural ones, and which will serve
you in every respect nearly as well as
your own that grew in your mouth.
The popularity of this great dental
firm, Wise Brothers, whose signal suc
cess we have from time to time noted
in these columns, is much to be desired.
They have proved to everbyody that we
need not suffer any longer with bad
teeth and poor food. We can all eat
what is good for us, and we all can
afford to have the best teeth in the
world.
Extracting teeth without pain was a
short time ago a myth. Now it is a
grand reality.

TUB BLOOD.
The blood ia life. We derive from
the blood life, power, beauty, and rea
son, as the doctors have been saying
from time immemorial. A healthy
body, a fresh appearance, and generally
all the abilities we possess depend on.
that source of life; It is therefore the
duty of every sensible man to keep thc
blood as pure and normal as possible.
Nature, in its infinite wisdom, has
given na a thermometer indictaing the
state of the blood, which appeals to our
reason by giving notice of its impurity.
Small eruptions of the skin, .to which
we scarcely pay any attention, head
ache, ringing noises in the ears, lassi
tude, sleeplessness, are generally a sign
that the blood is not in its normal
state, but is filled with noxions sub
stances. These symptoms deserve our
full attention. If more attention were
paid to those symptoms, and steps taken
to remove them, then many illnesses
from which we suffer would become un
known, and the human body would be
come stronger and healthier. Atten
tion therefor should be paid to those
warning signs, and the blood can be
purified and poisonous substances re
moved from it by the use of Dr. August
Koenig s Hamburg Drops, discovered
more than 60 years ago.
